Inspiring from a bar where you can experience Toronto’s night life

Bar Raval Toronto designed by PArtisans as a surreal and sensational stage for chef Grant van Gameren and renowned mixologist Mike Webster to showcase their skills and wow their customers, much like the interior of the bar itself! It truly is a place where you see and experience Toronto’s night life in an entirely different light! Crafted from sculpted mahogany, the bar transports you into an entirely different world that is draped in wood and metal, and brings together the compositional beauty of the contemporary world with the eclectic charm of Spanish Art Nouveau. And it does so in a truly magnificent manner!

Computer-driven patterns were mimicked using wood that seems to twist, turn and flow, shaping a backdrop that comes alive thanks to brilliant lighting. Spread across 1,980 square feet, the various pieces that shape the interior were inspired by an ingenious fusion of “formal histories of art nouveau, the plethora of cured slabs of meat, and the anatomy of the chefs themselves: a tattooed muscle bound group of intellectuals”. If that is not interesting enough, the fluidity of the design along with an interesting play between light and shadows takes the entire ambiance to a whole new level.
